The article discusses the main directions of Origen's in uence on the Latin Christian tradition of the 4th-15th centuries, on the theologians and philosophers of the Renaissance, Reformation and Modern Ages. In considering each period in the form of a brief overview, is revealed a circle of key authors and texts that has experienced the in uence of Origen in exegesis, theology and mysticism; the manifestations of two tendencies are compared: one that sympathizes with Origen and one that criticizes his unorthodox views. The main attention is paid to determining the ways in which Origen's writings and ideas penetrated the West, as well as the genetic continuity of the Western European Origenist tradition up to the beginning of the 19th century.
